Yep it is, thanks Raw. I actually had two young dudes "helping" me. Neither of them had heard of MyPlace.

First, they sent me to the Furniture department and the MyPlace's weren't there. Then, I walked around their department (Electronics/Gaming) and I couldn't find them. So finally, I went back to them and made them look it up for me on whatever hand-held device they had. They looked it up using the terms "myplace" and "place" and they said nothing came up. So I gave up.

If I would have remembered that every Target was supposed to have them I would have gone to customer service.

Think I'll head back over there, go to customer service, find where the MyPlace's are located, then do their Employee Education for them...

Went back to the Boulder Target to their customer service. When I asked about MyPlace and where it was, Stephanie asked, "Were you the one that called earlier?" I said I was, then introduced myself as Rawnoc.

Anyway, the 4 they had were not out on the floor, so they went to the back and got one for me.

I went ahead and purchased it just to give someone the message that maybe they should put them out on display. Hopefully they're already planning on it...

Went back to the Boulder CO Target to check out their MyPlace display.

Good News: There were 5 out on the floor (whereas a couple months ago they were still in storage).

Bad News: The 5 on the floor were in the "As Seen on TV" Section which was stuck by the knives, pots, and other household wares.

There was a great section with "Back to College" advertised all over it and wish MyPlace was displayed in that section.

Maybe I'll go there during a weekday, talk to a store manager, and suggest they put the display in the "Back to College" section?
